you can't, at least I can't either, but I don't need to respect a person by any means in 2018 to still enjoy music they made a long time ago. otherwise I'd be shit out of luck with my music taste.

Yeah man, it had nothing to do with the music, I love all of the 90s work like I said earlier. I was generally talking about human character and spirit. I feel like this happening has drained the life of the band for me. I'll never stop listening to the music though, that's kind of a separate entity.

also Eric Remschnieder lives in my town and he's told me some wild stories about Billy and his insecurity. Billy shut out Eric when he recorded Let it come down with james, and received a call from Billy in which he basically said "why are you playing with that guy? he hasn't got an original bone in his body!"

even if there's some half truths here, this reads like she's finally getting pay back for the years she suffered being associated with this man and working as a smashing pumpkin. She deserves to tell her side of the story and Billy deserves this too. "Mean spirited drug addict?" Finally she gets her say.

Also, I knew we were in trouble here when he said on Stern "I apologized to darcy for being a dick and she said i had to be that way because I'm such a great song writer." bitch, please.

Fuck Billy Corgan. For years, he has been gaslighting his fans into thinking he’s a functional human being who cares about creating music with integrity and treats the people around him with respect. It’s all been bullshit. Through all the scandals and shattered relationships and baffling public behavior, he has maintained a smokescreen of “ignore my bad behavior, I’m just purposely messing with the public’s perception of me as performance art.... I’m not the control freak egomaniac everyone says I am....everything is great in the band right now...it’s the other band members who were actually shitty people....” Thank god Darcy is the one person he’s worked with who actually has the balls to call him on this fucking shit publicly. I honestly find it validating. I’ve spent the last 20 years listening to Billy the politician try to manage his public image and convince us all that he’s really a good guy. I’ve half believed at times and fully believed it other times. It’s been an experience that makes me question my own logic. Classic narcissistic abuse, actually....just in the capacity of a celebrity to his fans. Less serious for sure. But equally insane. I’m done now. Fuck this piece of shit.
